EXCEPT the AC/DC pack for Wii which is compatible with the Les Paul and GHWT guitar (without touch slider functionality).

TAC PS2>USB adapter∞ - This adapter allows PS2 controllers to be used on PS3 or on PC. If you are using this adapter on PS3, you cannot tilt to activate star power, and the whammy bar has a slight delay.

This thread∞ on the ScoreHero forums has information on another adapter, but does not include a link where it can be purchased.

XCM XFPS 360∞ - This adapter allows any PS2 controller to be used on the Xbox 360.

General Troubleshooting

If Windows is detecting your controller, but won't allow you to use it in-game, try unistalling the game, and the device drivers completely and reinstalling.Add your troubleshooting tips HERE!

Multiplayer

Two players cannot both be mapped to the the keyboard. To overcome this problem, you may create a virtual GH controller supported by the GH software, through the use of PPJoy and registry modification to rename the virtual joystick. Then, GlovePIE is used to map the real, unsupported controller to the virtual controller. For the other player, GlovePIE maps the controller to the keyboard, as usual. This permits multiplayer with any combination of controllers.

Drum Pedals

You CANNOT plug pedals designed for the Rock Band or ION kits into the World Tour drums, or vice versa; however, the makers of the Rock Pedal are working on an adapter to fix this.

Previous point notwithstanding, the pedals are platform-indpendent. A 360 pedal will work on a Wii drumset, etc.

To plug a Rock Band pedal (or a pedal designed for the Rock Band kit) into the ION kit, use a 1/8" to 1/4" adapter (either stereo or mono works; available at your local electronics store)

To plug multiple pedals into the World Tour kit, you can use any 1/8" headphone splitter (either stereo or mono works; available at any electronics store)

To plug multiple pedals into the Rock Band or ION kits, you need a special Rock Band pedal splitter; if you use a normal splitter, if you hold one pedal down the other won't work. Also, you'll need the aforementioned 1/8" to 1/4" adapter if you have an ION kit. And if one of those pedals is the stock ION pedal, you'll need a 1/4" to 1/8" adapter as well, so that you can plug the ION pedal into the splitter.
